A few days ago I had the pleasure

of leading an evening of chants dedicated to Hanuman, the beloved monkey deity of India. Since then I have been infused with extra joy and vigour..... dancing about and grinning at random strangers. Who have reciprocated with the most beautiful smiles and gazes….Life is flowing and she is good!

What happened? A group of us spent an evening immersed in Hanuman as the embodiment of fearlessness, physical power, pure love and devotion. We brought him into our hearts, minds and bodies….or perhaps he brought us into his! In either case, I feel freer and happier each time I chant Hanuman’s Chalisas, and things flow more smoothly in my life afterwards. I also meet and make connections with beautiful people who are drawn to the same energy. Jai Hanuman!

Hanuman is known as the "Breath of God" and "Son of the Wind". He symbolizes energy that flows without hesitation, and this energy is born from Love. It is truly devotion in action.

There are many methods to choose from as we care for our bodies, minds and spirits. Deep down, they tap into universal energy flow and vibration. We can call it prana, qi, Reiki, ruach….And we can feel it flowing through breath, movement, yoga, dance and qigong (to name a few modalities). When energy flows, our lives move forward with effortless ease; we feel it in our bodies, thoughts and emotions. We are in harmony with ourselves and with the world around us.
